Not too bad. In addition to what the others said, not knowing which carb you're working on is kind of limited. If it's a Carter or Q-jet based make sure the surfaces (top, body, throtle plates) aren't warped. Metal straight edge and emery paper is what I have always used to "fine tune" the mounting surfaces. Never had a leak unless the body was really warped by other owners over tightening the screws in previous rebuilds.
